As the year swiftly dances towards its close and the Festive Season descends on us, we find ourselves reflecting on the whirlwind of moments that defined our journey. Seeing all our valued Shareholders and guests arrive through the Kridzil gates has consistently been the highlight of our days. Your laughter, your stories, and the shared joy have painted vibrant strokes on the canvas of our year. These are the moments we want to hold onto, appreciate, and never let slip away. Over the past six months, our dedicated efforts have been a labour of love aimed at

 

ensuring that your home-away-from-home is even better than the last time you visited. We have worked tirelessly to infuse dreams into every sunrise and sunset, making subtle upgrades and crafting unforgettable experiences. Your satisfaction has been our North Star, and as the calendar pages turn, we find fulfillment in the shared stories, echoes of laughter, and bonds formed within these walls. Before the waves of time carry us into the embrace of 2024, we wish to share glimpses of the strides we've taken on this journey together.

 

 


Vincentia
 

Tidy Towns has been doing a tremendous job with its initiative to keep a pristine environment in Margate for residents and tourists alike. The Kridzil Team is putting forth its best efforts to support Tidy Towns in maintaining the cleanliness of the streets and the surrounding areas. Our staff undertakes the task of cleaning the Lagoon and Marine Drive in front of our buildings every single day. Additionally, they also clean the vacant field adjacent to Kridzil. This commitment to keeping the area clean contributes to the overall well-being of the community.

 

We are committed to ensuring that we maintain the Resort at its best for both our guests and valued Shareholders. Here are some of the improvements and enhancements we've implemented since our

last update:

 
 
room upgrades
Games Room

Two windows were installed in the games room to facilitate the flow of fresh air. The walls were also repainted to give the room a new and vibrant feel.

 
room upgrades

Block A Back-Up Water

The 1000-litre water tank that was previously located near the block’s parking area has been moved to the roof to improve the water supply during water and power outages.

 
room upgrades

Swimming Pool Garden

(ongoing)

The project to spruce up the swimming pool garden is ongoing. As of late, the garden boasts a variety of fresh herbs which guests are welcome to make use of.

 
 
room upgrades

Kitchen Cupboards

(in progress)

The kitchen cupboard doors and panels are currently being repaired in all units.

 

 
room upgrades

Solar Lighting

Solar lights have been installed across the property and entrance gates for ample lighting during the evenings, especially in the event of load shedding.

 

We have only received a handful of responses regarding our bathroom renovation survey, and we would like to extend an invitation to all our Shareholders to participate and help us gain a more comprehensive understanding of your needs. By doing so, we can ensure that our future refurbishments align with your preferences.

 

To help you recall, we would like to know if our Shareholders would want to keep the bath-shower combo, as is currently provided for in our unit bathrooms, or would you prefer that this be changed to a normal walk-in shower,

without the bath.

 

Your opinion is invaluable to us. Please take a moment to share your preference in the survey provided here.

Wonan's Day
 

Father's Day

Dads are the original superheroes kids get to know, so this Father's Day, the Kridzil Team decided to treat our visiting dads just like the superheroes they truly are. During check-in, every super dad received a superhero-themed mug stuffed with sweet treats, accompanied by a card that said, "Happy Father's Day, Super Dad." We also created handy little coupon books filled with super dad perks that they can redeem whenever they please during their holiday or whilst at home.

Father's Day
 

Women’s Day

We consider it a privilege to recognise and show our heartfelt thanks to the remarkable women in our lives for everything they do. That is why, on Women’s Day, Kridzil took to spoiling all the incredible women visiting us with a mini survival kit, complete with body butter and hand and nail cream. After all, even Wonder Woman deserves a little pampering every now and then!

Wonan's Day
 

Heritage Day

On Heritage Day, we offered our guests the choice of three distinctly shaped wooden cutting boards. The boards were engraved with the words “Heritage Day 2023” as well as the Resort name, making sure our guests will always think of us while slicing and dicing.

Heritage Day
 

Meet and Greet Braais

Our Meet and Greet Braais with Uvongo River Resort have quickly become the highlight of our guests’ stay. The atmosphere is always buzzing with laughter and the mouth-watering scent of braais wafting around as Hannes, the Maintenance HOD at Uvongo, keeps everyone entertained with his incredible keyboard-playing skills and captivating vocals. Make it a point to join us for the next one during your visit - trust us, you won't want to miss out!

Heritage Day
 

Celebrating Love

We are all a bunch of hopeless romantics here at Kridzil, so when we had the chance to welcome two lovely couples - one celebrating an anniversary and the other their honeymoon - we went all out to sprinkle some romance on their stays.

 

For our anniversary couple, we decorated their unit with red hearts and towels folded into origami swans and a heart. As for our honeymooners, we surprised them with a bottle of bubbly, a bouquet of red roses, and delicious chocolates. We also adorned their love nest with red heart decorations and two origami swans.
 

We extend warm wishes to our Shareholders for a joyous festive season and a truly Merry Christmas. Additionally, we want to take this opportunity to wish everyone an early Happy New Year. The year 2023 has been an exciting one, marked by several upgrades, and we attribute our achievements to the continued support of our Shareholders. Without their support, our progress would not have been possible, and we sincerely appreciate their ongoing contributions. We value the input of our Shareholders and eagerly anticipate reconnecting with everyone during the festive season. As we approach this celebratory time, we encourage everyone to travel safely. Our Team is filled with positivity and enthusiasm, eagerly looking forward to welcoming everyone with open arms and big smiles.

Regards

The Kridzil Team

We sincerely appreciate our valued Shareholders and guests for being an essential part of our Kridzil community and are grateful for the time you take to share your feedback and coastal adventures with us. We thought we’d take a moment to share some snippets of reviews we’ve received:

“My family and I had an amazing stay at Kridzil!

All staff members were super friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend Kridzil for a relaxing family getaway.”

- Leon Uys

 

“Classic 1970s style stacked square flat blocks, so familiar and yet so easy to slip into and just shake off the city. Extremely comfortable and spacious. And from Martin the manager to Cathy at reception and Thabo who did the heavy lifting up the stairs, it turned out to be a pleasant break away from Gauteng and work. Recommended for families.”

- Simone Lynne Kloppers
 

“We had the pleasure of staying in your holiday flats. What a lekker place. The rooms are clean, the staff goes out their way and the gardens are beautiful. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to visit Margate. 10/10”

- Jaco Nel
